I stood
a-watchin' all night long
I stood a-watchin' all night long
I stood
a-watchin' till you went away
You were a girl of many charms
Oh, how I
loved you in my arms
I never thought that you would ever go
'cause I
loved you so

CHORUS
Oh, uh, Susie darlin'
I thought you
knew
You were all the world to me
All my dreams come true

I stood
a-cryin' all night long
I stood a-cryin' all night long
Cryin' wishin'
you'd come back to me-ee
Thinking of all the dreams we knew
Now that
you're gone they won't come true
My heart is empty without you
Nothin'
there but misery

CHORUS

Now-ow I stand a-watchin' all night
long
I stand a-watchin' all night long
Knowing that life has nothing left
for me-ee
I'll wait around most patiently
Hopin' you will return to
me
Till that happy day I will always be
Watchin' all night
long

Oh, uh, Susie darlin'
I thought you knew
You were all the
world to me
All my dreams come true
